Information Design and Unifying Approach for Secured Data Sharing Using Attribute-Based Access Control Mechanisms

Abstract

In response to the safety concerns surrounding the IoT, an attribute-based encryption and access control scheme (ABE-ACS) has been proposed. This scheme can be more effectively implemented through the use of cutting-edge technology and incorporating attribute-based encryption (ABE) and attribute-based access control (ABAC) models with features as the point of origin. Facing Edge-IoT is a heterogeneous network made up of certain nodes with more powerful computers and the majority of resource-constrained IoT devices. The authors provide a lightweight with an upgrade to the proof-of-work consensus to address the issues of excessive resource consumption and challenging deployment of existing platforms. To protect the confidentiality of the access control policies, the limits of the tree are utilised for transformation and allocation stored. Six smart contracts are created for devices and data to implement the ABAC and punishment mechanism, which outsources ABE to edge nodes for privacy and integrity. Thus, the plan implements device-controlled access and Edge-IoT privacy protection for data.
